Jack : 我觉得我知道。当你暗示别人不得不做什么事情的时候，你可以用这两个词。
Lucy : That’s right. You must learn the difference between these two words.
Lucy:是，你必须学习这两个词的区别。
Jack : You used must instead of should, you could also have said ‘You should learn the difference between these two words’. Right?
Jack : 你用了“must”，没用“should”，你也可以说“你应该学习这两个词的区别”，对吗?
Lucy : That’s right! But learning the difference is very important, that’s why you must know it.
Lucy:对!学习他们之间的区别也很重要，这就是为什么你必须要了解它。
Jack : So when something is very important you use must?
Jack : 就是说当什么东西非常重要的时候，你要用“must”?
Lucy : Correct! When you can’t avoid doing something, or doing it is very important, then you use ‘must’.
Lucy:对了!你不可避免得要做一些事情的时候，或要做一些重要的事情的时候，就用“must”。
Jack : And you use ‘should’ when you want to recommend that something should be done, or when a person ought to do something, but it’s not a strict requirement.
Jack : 当你想建议该做什么事情了，或该一个人做什么事情了，但又不是严格的要求的话，就用“should”。
Lucy : That’s correct! You know the difference now. You should give yourself a treat!
Lucy:对!你现在会区分了。你应该奖励一下自己!
Jack : I should, so it’s not a requirement and I may or may not do it.
Jack : 我应该，所以这不是一个要求，我可以做，也可以不做。
Lucy : It’s your choice. But we must hear some sample conversations.
Lucy:由你决定。但我们必须听一些会话示范。
Jack : We must, so we have to. Okay, let’s go!
